<p>i could do with a bit of help with my comprehension actually.... apologists don't apologise, but they do make stuff up... why wouldn't you just call them liars?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>am i going to play a game in which the loser stops posting here? i don't really know how to respond to that, given that you didn't like it when i called you childish last time.</p>

<p>you see, from a very cursory inspection i don't have a problem with that site at all. here's a quote from it:</p>

They should neither be shunned, mistreated, nor disrespected merely because of their religion.

<p> </p>
<p>Which is entirely in line with my criticism of the baron's initial post saying he had no sympathy for muslims being mistreated.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>and also the ramadan bombathon is pretty sweet.</p> -

<p>I know, but to be fair you make it quite easy. You being a someone who just makes up a narrative to argue against helps no end.</p>

<p>I will be happy to answer, once you admit your false narrative and made up bullshit. or at least actually answer my query for proof of your assertion.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I know it is the usual regressive left way to throw out false narratives and accusations and just hope they dont get called on them.. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I made a point, and unlike you it was actually about a topic and not a poster. You then decided to started yelling bigot!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You don't have to agree with the point, but it was incredibly illustrative that in response, you didn't attack the point, you attacked me. And then you have the cheek to accuse me of name calling.. .. you think you should be allowed to use pejorative terms and nobody else?.. or just your regressive left mates? And then you call me a hypocrite.. lol</p>

<p>but the article which you were talking about was about muslims being mistreated. at no stage did it, or anyone else, compare levels of sympathy for victims of violence to that. except you. and yet you are the one who keeps saying 'straw man'.</p>

<p>such an angry man. </p>

<p>i don't fit the regressive definition you've given unfortunately - i'm opposed to religious extremism, and opposed to anybody hurting or oppressing anybody else. </p>
<p>you don't seen to understand that someone can be opposed to that, and at the same time be tolerant towards muslims who are not hurting anyone... which suggests a pretty simplistic view of things. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>let's put it in little words:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>just because i don't agree with you, does not mean i support ISIS.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>but you're welcome to ask me again why i support them. free speech is good, innit.</p> -

<p>yep, and this is why i'm not letting you have the last word me old mate. this is your usual style: rant and abuse until the other person gets sick of it and leaves you to it - and somehow you think you can claim that as a victory for your argument. </p>

<p>i've done my best to explain to you why what you said was wrong - in response, here we are with you telling me i support ISIS and hate gays. i think imma gonna have to call you childish again soon.</p> -
